On December 1, we held the fourth USCIS Twitter Office Hours to answer your general questions about immigration benefits and other services. Below you can find all of the questions that we answered, as well as “bonus” answers to two of the other questions we received but did not have time to answer.

Thanks to everyone who tweeted questions for the hour. We look forward to engaging with you during future pilot installments of USCIS Twitter Office Hours.

Thank you USCIS for the twitter Q&A's. During the past 7 years the USCIS has done more to become accessible to the public than in prior years. Before that time, people had to line up for hours (outside) to ask one immigration question of an officer who may or may not be helpful. It was the typical bureaucratic atmosphere. You have turned the agency around with the forward business thinking.

My 19 yr old cousins father had petitioned him, however he passed away last year before his permanent resident card was issued. His grandmother said that there is nothing she can do. Is this so? Is it a money issue? His father was a legal permanent resident and lived in Rhode Island for many years. I am a U.S. naturalized citizen since 1980, is there anything I can do?

There is a huge backlog on I-140 processing at NSC. When is the next load transfer planned by USCIS to bring NSC back on track.
